Seems like there's some delivery availability on these. Also does anyone have performance experience with this unit?

The Hisense 98QD5QG is an entry-level model released in 2025. It's one of the cheapest TVs available in this size range, but it's a very basic 4k TV with an LCD panel and no local dimming. However, it does have modern gaming features like two HDMI 2.1 ports, 4k @ 144Hz, and VRR. It utilizes Google TV as its smart OS, which has a ton of available apps, and gives you smart features like voice control and the ability to cast content from your phone using AirPlay or Chromecast. We bought and tested the 98-inch model, which is the only size available.

Our Verdict for
Mixed Usage
The Hisense 98QD5QG is sub-par for mixed usage. The TV is just bright enough to handle glare in a moderately lit room, especially when combined with its matte screen coating. Unfortunately, it looks quite bad in a dark home theater due to its awful contrast and poor HDR brightness. The TV has modern gaming features, but its gaming performance is really held back by very blurry motion. That motion blur also affects the clarity of fast-paced sports. Fortunately, it does have a wide viewing angle, so it's alright for a wide seating arrangement.

Pros
-Great handling of direct reflections.
-Wide viewing angle.
Cons
-Awful contrast and poor black uniformity makes the image look washed out.
-Too dim in SDR to handle glare in a bright room.
-Too dim in HDR for an impactful experience.

This unit will not last longer than 2yrs. Repair is about half the price of a new one

Crazy to think we've reach the point where 100"~ TVs are sub $1000. Great deal! (if you can find a Best Buy that has it in stock)

It says it's available in good supply in my area and would be delivered on July 7th. For those that really want it, keep checking back as sometimes they will adjust their inventory numbers around a couple times a day! Sometimes more…

Pretty tempting, even if it would be for the garage or our backyard patio. Of course, my husband turned his nose up at it because he only buys the top of the line Samsung. I thought for the garage we could make an exception. I guess it will depend later on tonight, on how much of a fight I wanna put up about it… Meh.


I just checked again a few minutes ago and it said that the availability on the TVs changed and it said we could have itdelivered on June 30, which is only four days away. Not too bad.

Direct lit single backlight. No dimming zones. Will look terrible. Need the 7 or 8 for that.

Not if you have the extended warranty for it in which everyone should buy for any tv that they purchased.
